THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET.

I06 mOr6 blD poOplb DeSOL16 hC4uhlut
ed with the State ticket nominated at
Cleveland the better they like 1t. How
that feeling runs could not be better
expressed than 1t is by the President Of
the Board of Directors, Of the Columbus
Journal, the central Republican organ
Of Ohio. That gentleman, q day or two
since, in speaking Of the Democratic
State ticket and platform to an inter
viewer said: "NOhOdy can complain Of
that ticket and platform. Powell is =
good stumper and will make a great
canvass" The feeling Of the people,
and especially Of Democrats, could Dot
be better expressed. Mr.. Powell Is not
only q good stumper, but he Is also q
very effective one. And more than that
he is man that no person feels back
ward In approaching, because his open,
manly cOuntenance shows the true man
and gentleman In every lineament
Wherever he Is known he is popular.
To show his popularity in this city, the
writer has heard since the convention
at least fifty Republicans here say they
intended to vote for Tom Powell
why" asked another Republican whc
was present. because Tom Powell Is
q man that rich and poor alike can talk
to. BE is not like Ben Foraker, who
could not 20 to Toledo to the conven
tiOn like other pc Ople, but must ride In
private car with servants to wait Oh
him, and keep from coming In contact
with the people he expects to vote for
him. Tom Powell went to Cleveland
with the people who were going to the
same place, and rode in the same Car
with them. There is nothing of the
snc b about Tom Powell. and that is why
as a Republican, intend to vote for
him.
the whole Democratic State ticket is
like Mr.. Powell. They are all first class
gentlemen, genuine Democrats. and
good workers In the Democratic party
They are all popular where they are
known, and have Che confidence, respect
and esteem Of their acquaintance 10
short. 1t Is the ablest and best ticket the
Democrats have placed In nomination
for many years. N.
